About: Hi! I’m Cassidy, and caring for animals is something I truly love. With 5+ years of pet-sitting experience and professional experience at Bear Brook Kennels, I’ve had the opportunity to care for a wide variety of animals and gain hands-on experience with pets of many different breeds, personalities, temperaments, and needs. At Bear Brook Kennels, I cared for dogs, cats, and exotic animals, learning how important it is to understand each pet’s individual routine and personality. I’ve also had experience caring for police K9s while they were boarded, which gave me the opportunity to work around highly trained working dogs and taught me the importance of following specific care instructions, routines, and handling requirements. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets who needed everything from daily walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship to extra patience, attention, medication administration and individualized care. I’m comfortable working with energetic pups, senior pets, shy or nervous animals, and pets who need a little extra time to feel comfortable with someone new. My goal is simple: to make your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family members with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and affection I’d want for my own. I also have a friendly personal pup who can tag along for visits or stays if you’d like your pet to have a furry friend! If your pet prefers one-on-one attention, I’m just as happy to leave my pup at home. Your pets aren’t just pets — they’re family. And I’d be honored to care for them! 🐶🐱 I’m currently working at a kennel, where I’m gaining even more hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals. My schedule is already fairly flexible, and starting in mid-October, my availability will open up significantly. I’ll have plenty of time for walks, playtime, cuddles, drop-ins, and boarding, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s individual routine and needs! 🐾❤️ I provide a safe, calm, and welcoming environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. With 5+ years of pet-sitting experience and professional experience at Bear Brook Kennels, I’m comfortable caring for dogs with a wide range of breeds, personalities, temperaments, and needs. I always take the time to learn each pet’s individual routine and follow their care instructions closely. I’ve also been researching dog behavior and training techniques and plan to shadow local trainers in the area so I can continue learning and better understand the dogs in my care. My priority is always making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, supervised, and loved while they’re with me.

“Bohni was a treat on all levels!!! She stayed with my cat for 3 nights and 4 days.. I think my cat likes her more. The house was better than I left it.. Angel was calm and happy.. I was able to be away from her for the first time and feel confident in her STELLAR care.. if there were 10 stars she would get them all!!!!! Got photos all well everyday!!!! Happy customer”
“Shae was a wonderful dog sitter for our senior pup. It was clear that our dog Chloe loved her and that Shae is a natural animal lover which makes it so much nicer when we go away! She wasn’t intimidated by her lengthy medication schedule and took great care of our pup and our home so we’d absolutely book her again!”
“Melissa did an awesome job taking care of my two fur babies for a week. I recommend her for any of your needs. I have one dog who has to have medication very morning and one dog who is anxious over everything and I am more than pleased to have come home to a happy home.”
“Nicole is very communicative and caring. She jumped in to help with a very last minute request. She is calm, and is really sweet with the dogs. We had to end the booking early due to concerns with my dog’s behavior but I’m thankful she was able to flag the issues early on. She is easy to work with and your dogs wills be in great hands.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 138 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Jackson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Jackson walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Jackson maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Jackson choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
